In addition, since the grip can be fixed to any position of the chassis, the grip can be fixed to the chassis at a position desired by the angler.
[0008]
In this fishing rod, the grip is fixed to the housing by the locking portion being locked in the recess.
[0010]
In this fishing rod, in the unlocked state, the end of the locking portion is separated from the recess. When the operating portion is brought into the locked state from this state, the distal end portion of the locking portion moves in the radial direction and is locked in the recess.
[0014]
In this fishing rod, the grip is fixed to the rod body by the rear end portion of the locking portion being urged by the urging member and being locked to the recess. In this state, when the grip is moved in the axial direction with respect to the housing, the operation unit is pushed toward the housing. Then, the rear end portion of the locking portion rotates against the urging force of the urging member and moves away from the recess. Thereby, a grip becomes movable with respect to a housing. When the grip is moved to a desired position while the operation unit is pressed and the operation unit is released, the locking member receives the urging force of the urging member and rotates to be locked in the recess again. Thereby, a grip can be fixed to a desired position.
[0015]
Here, the angler can fix the grip at a desired position quickly and easily by a simple operation.
The fishing rod according to the second aspect is used for fishing and includes a rod and a grip. The casing has a cylindrical shape having a reel sheet on the base side outer peripheral surface on which a reel can be mounted. The grip is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the casing adjacent to the tip side of the reel sheet, and is a pipe-shaped one that can move in the axial direction and can be fixed at any position in the axial direction of the casing. A plurality of recesses are formed side by side in the axial direction on the outer peripheral surface of the housing, and the grip has a locking portion that can be locked to the plurality of recesses. The locking portions are formed at a plurality of locations on the inner peripheral surface of the grip at different positions in the circumferential direction.
